Dr. Supot is an excellent host and the apartment is better than some of the 5-star hotels I've stayed in.
Dr. Supot is a very professional and considerate host. Although we did not meet, Dr. Supot was always contactable on the phone and highly responsive to requests. During my stay, there was a slight problem with the locking mechanism on the balcony door. When I pointed this out to the host, he responded within minutes by arranging to send out a repairman to carry out the minor repair work. The team took care to complete the work at a time of my convenience so this was done at no interruption to my travel plans.
The apartment is perfectly sized for two guests and comes with every convenience that I needed including a safe deposit box, and laundry equipment. The host even provided shampoo, shower gel, and new sets of cotton wool buds which I did not use but which was a nice, personal touch! The apartment came spotlessly clean. The booking came with a cleaning service which was carried out by two maids who were able to complete their job quickly and efficiently. There is one small quirk about the space: as there are two smoke detectors - one in the bathroom and one in the living room - guests who love taking hot showers might want to keep the bathroom door tightly closed with the lights and extractor fan on. I didn't do this the first night and caused mild concern as I ended up inadvertantly tripping the smoke detector. :)
The property is located about a 1.2km (12 minute) walk away from the Phrom Phong BTS station. There is an hourly tuk-tuk service available at the reception for guests who are unable to walk this distance. The tuk-tuk leaves the property 8 times a day at the top of the hour (8-11 am, 1-4pm), every day except for Sundays and public holidays. Convenience stores (7-11, FamilyMart) are located close to the property both southwards (towards Sukhumvit Road) and northwards (towards Petchaburi Road), so it is extremely convenient to get all the basics of daily living. There are also some fantastic restaurants in the surrounding area, and the street food stalls aren't too shabby either.
This apartment would be at the top of my mind for my next visit to Bangkok!
